Region-locked. Heracross only spawns in Central and South America. A Gen 2 exclusive to the Latin American band, from Central America down to Argentina. It does not evolve, but Mega Heracross is released, and Mega Energy comes from its own raids and from walking it as your buddy — so catch several while you are in region rather than one. A high-IV Heracross is also a usable bug attacker and a strong trade chip.

Where can I find Heracross in Pokémon GO?

The board on this page lists every Heracross our scanners can currently see, anywhere in the world, with its IV, CP, level and location. Heracross is region-locked — it only spawns in Central and South America — so the live list is the fastest way to see one that is actually up right now.

Can Heracross be shiny in Pokémon GO?

Yes. Measured across 318,846 encounters our own scanners logged, shiny Heracross appears roughly 1 in 506. That is an observed rate from live data, not the developer's published number — Niantic does not publish shiny rates.

What is the max CP of Heracross?

Heracross maxes at 3,101 CP at Level 40, 3,506 CP at Level 50, and 3,548 CP as a Best Buddy at Level 51 — all at a perfect 15/15/15 IV spread. Its base stats are 234 Attack, 179 Defense and 190 Stamina, and it is Bug · Fighting-type.

Is Heracross good for PvP?

Heracross ranks #153 in Master League by stat product. Its best spread there is 15/15/15 at Level 50, reaching 3,506 CP — which is why a low-IV catch is often worth more in PvP than a hundo.
